Embroiled in an imbroglio,
muddled interests at stake,
burdened with taskmasters,
righteous indignation
oils the gates of fury
in ecstasy before the fall,
little could be done but observe,
egos blow up like pufferfish,
disorder at the heart of mind,
incidents create precedent,
no one is immune to judgment,
another dollar lost to shrinks,
no one recovers their money,
in the confusion, a boy leaves,
musters strength to return,
bitter almonds, he leaves again,
returns as his older brother,
organizes a ring to steal,
given the poverty, poor folk
lift what they can't afford,
in the interest of basketball,
only the rich enjoy their sport.
